The so-called special potion was actually the result of Aaron's sudden idea when he was in school.
In the magical world, there are often examples like this:
A certain mysterious magical phenomenon appears in a wizard without warning, giving them some magical abilities that ordinary people do not have, such as Parseltongue, Metamorphmagus, and some ancient magic that has been lost.
However, the occurrence of this phenomenon is completely uncontrollable, and most of them are isolated cases. After the owner of the ability dies, there is a very small chance that this phenomenon will still be passed down along with their bloodline, but in most cases it disappears directly and there is no possibility of recurrence.
For Aaron, this was undoubtedly an extremely heartbreaking thing. How many rare and precious research templates were lost in the smoke and dust of history.
After all, what is hidden behind a magical phenomenon is probably a door to an unknown realm.
So Aaron was thinking, is it possible to preserve these rare magical phenomena?
The simplest way of thinking is of course black magic, which directly turns people who have inherited a certain phenomenon into special specimens like the living dead, so that this magical phenomenon can naturally be preserved.
This incident taught Aaron a truth: black magic is often the fastest way to solve problems, but it is also the least desirable way.
Sometimes Aaron couldn't help but think about whether many problems would not be so difficult to solve if morality and law were ignored.
Unfortunately there are still ethics and laws.
After all, there are morals and laws.
So Aaron thought of another way-magic potion.
In the world of magic, Potions is actually a very broad and profound magic subject. Wizards cannot fully describe its subtleties. In this regard, vampires have more advanced skills.
Aaron had a lot of 'deals' with vampires during his three years of travel. As immortals, they can maintain the inheritance of many ancient skills, and have a more calm attitude than wizards to explore the mysteries of potions.
For vampires, potions are more convenient than spells. They can achieve many effects that even magic cannot achieve, and have unlimited possibilities.
Moreover, vampires have such a magical ability:
They can identify the abilities possessed by others by swallowing their blood, and can use the rich knowledge they have accumulated during their long lives to prepare potions to reproduce this ability.
For example, a vampire drinks the blood of a Parseltongue. Then, it can prepare a corresponding potion so that the person who takes the potion can also have Parseltongue.
When Aaron knew about this ability of vampires, he was shocked. What is this? Identifying DNA with the naked eye?
Why are you hiding in a castle if you have the ability? Using this skill to break into the biosphere and become a master, why not just suck blood as much as you want?
So, Aaron made a prompt decision - he made an offer that the vampires could never refuse in exchange for their skills in formulating potions.
However, the technology is available, but Aaron is not a vampire, and he does not have the magical abilities of a vampire.
If you want to prepare a potion that gives people extraordinary abilities, you must have the blood of the ability owners, or in other words, a substance similar to genetic information extracted by vampires from the blood of those ability owners.
Aaron calls it a trait.
The appearance of Runas helped Aaron solve this problem.
As the wizarding world's first 'artificial intelligence', Runas' abilities are subversive. It can extract the 'characteristics' of wizards by conducting some in-depth analysis of them.
As long as he has this 'property', it is possible for Aaron to imitate vampires and prepare magic potions, so that people can have the possibility to reproduce certain magical abilities.
Aaron named this potion 'Characteristic Potion'.
Of course, there are still many difficulties ahead on this road——
Not to mention Aaron himself, even the vampires themselves are often unable to prepare corresponding potions because the characteristics analyzed from the blood are too strange.
Even if they really create a magic potion formula with ancient wisdom, they may still face the problem of not being able to find the corresponding magic potion raw materials.
But even so, Aaron is determined to continue on this path. Apart from anything else, if he could really do it, he would be able to extract a 'characteristic' from the owner of a magical ability when he met him.
Then, Aaron can create a brand new potion formula based on this 'property'. With this alone, he may become the wizard with the most potion patents in the history of magic!
…
"Potions Master?"
Hermione had to be thankful that Neville was gone, otherwise he would have jumped to the ceiling with joy.
Hermione herself had no idea about this young gentleman taking over as Potions Professor. Although he was young, the outstanding magic he had just revealed was enough to prove that he was qualified to become a professor.
"What about Professor Snape?"
Hermione asked with some curiosity.
Aaron replied: "Professor Snape still teaches this course, but now he is only in charge of fifth grade and NEWT classes, and I am in charge of grades one to four."
"Oh..." Hermione was a little surprised. One class was taught by two teachers? This still rarely happens at Hogwarts.
The train rumbled forward, and the billowing steam dispersed backwards like clouds. Hermione had no idea that hundreds of feet above her head, her two best friends were flying freely.
At this time, the salesperson pushed the trolley, and Aaron ordered two glasses of iced pumpkin juice and some crucible-shaped cakes. He pushed a glass of pumpkin juice to Hermione, pointed at the cake and asked:
"Want some?"
Hermione shook her head politely: "No, thank you Professor."
"Eat. I'm very happy to meet such a smart and hard-working little wizard like you on my first day of employment. Take it as a reward. Come on."
Hermione's face suddenly turned red - she seemed unable to withstand such a compliment. She didn't refuse anymore, took the pumpkin juice and sipped it.
Aaron smiled slightly, and was just about to continue reading with his head down, when at this moment, he felt a vibration in his pocket.
A golden snitch flew out of his pocket. It flew gracefully and slowly, with an eye opened in the middle of its spherical body.
"Oh my God, Professor, what is this?"
Hermione was shocked. Of course she had seen the Snitch before - Harry was a Seeker, but she bet that there would never be another Snitch that looked so strange in the world.
"There is a gadget I made myself, which can be regarded as my teaching assistant. It is called Runas. You may see it in class in the future."
With that said, Aaron greeted Runas: "Runas, say hello to Miss Granger, who is number one in our grade."
"Hello, nice to meet you, beautiful and intelligent lady."
Runas vibrates its transparent wings at a unique frequency - it can use this to make sounds and communicate with people other than Aaron.
"Oh, hello, Runus." Hermione stretched out her hand timidly and said hello to it.
Suddenly - Hermione seemed to have thought of something, she turned around and asked Aaron:
"Professor, how do you know about me?"
"It's not difficult to understand - I am a teacher and I want to teach here. Before I take up my post, shouldn't I have some basic understanding of the students I want to teach?"
Aaron shrugged: "Not only do I know this, I also know that you have two good friends who worked together to prevent the mysterious man from seizing the Sorcerer's Stone last year - this is not a secret."
"Yes, even I know about the boy-who-lived Harry Potter, the smart and studious Hermione Granger, and the Weasley family's youngest son Ron."
Runas helped from the side.
"Oh!" Hermione opened her mouth slightly, still surprised, but - she thought this new professor was really interesting.
The train rumbled forward, the chat box was opened, and Aaron began to chat with Hermione:
Hermione asked him many questions about potions, and Aaron answered them all patiently for her. He also imparted to her some of his unique experiences in preparing potions at the right time.
This made Hermione's initial impression of him almost too good to be better - she knew that Snape would never show such a good face towards her.
During this period, Runas also politely suggested to Hermione: If Miss Granger is willing to take good care of her hair and make some adjustments to her teeth, your natural beauty will be even more outstanding.
This made Hermione blush. She promised for a long time before refusing because her parents didn't like her using magic to repair her teeth.
The two of them communicated happily as soon as they hit the ball. Unknowingly, the sky gradually turned dark - and with a long and rapid whistle, the train arrived at the station.
Aaron said goodbye to Hermione. He smiled and said to Hermione:
"It's a pleasure to meet you, Miss Granger. Your knowledge of magic is amazing. However, as a teacher, I would like to give you a suggestion: Don't be too superstitious about authority, especially in the world of magic. Sometimes, a little Go beyond worldly boundaries and you will gain unexpected things.”
"Oh, thank you, Professor... just call me Hermione." Hermione's face was red, as if she was very shy.
"Okay Hermione, see you at Hogwarts then?"
"Goodbye Hogwarts, Professor."
